The word "rogue" is not a good word, but the content it contains is also "broad and profound". Some hooligans can only do some small things such as chicken and dog thieves, and it is difficult to be elegant. But some can leave a strong mark in history, so do you know who the three most famous female "hooligans" in the Republic of China period are?
To say that the first "female hooligan" in the Republic of China is definitely not Shen Peizhen
At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the People's Republic, with the influx of various ideological trends, people's thinking also began to change, and the feminist movement became the goal pursued by many women, and Shen Peizhen was definitely the most extreme demonized woman in the history of the Chinese feminist movement!
She is both a god high above and a demon trapped in hell! As a staunch feminist movement leader, the "Declaration" of the Republic of China period has a 5-word evaluation of her: "The great man of the female world!" ”
I have to say that the evaluation of these 5 words is very high, and Shen Peizhen is fully worthy of such praise. As early as mr. Zhongshan led the Xinhai Revolution, Shen Peizhen was the tiger general of the Hangzhou women's death squad, which is famous in modern history.

It is no exaggeration to say that Shen Peizhen is definitely the Republic of China's version of Mulan. With a series of contributions, she was also a prominent figure in the early days of the Republic of China. By the time Yuan Shikai came to power, Shen Peizhen had become an adviser to the Presidential Office and a senior senator in the Suiyuan General's Office. Unfortunately, when Yuan Shikai was retrograde and restored, she stood in the wrong line.
After understanding Shen Peizhen's career, it is not difficult for everyone to find that she is not only not a rogue, but a tiger general! So why did she become the first female hooligan in the Republic of China? There are three reasons (not chronologically)!
The first reason is the above-mentioned "wrong team". When Yuan Shikai ascended the throne and restored, Shen Peizhen printed a business card for himself, which was printed with the words "Protégé of the Great President", which was then angrily scolded by the people of the whole country.

The second reason, the "sniffing little feet" incident. The fuse that caused Shen Peizhen's disgrace was the "Awakening Chunju Incident".
In the late Qing Dynasty and the early years of the Republic of China, China's old-fashioned literati had a very special habit, which was to sniff women's small feet (after women wrap their feet, their feet are relatively small). How such strange preferences arose is impossible to verify. But if a woman is "sniffed" by a man, it is a very discredited thing.
On June 1, 1915, the Shenzhou Daily published an article: Shen Peizhen was sniffed by a man in public at the banquet. As soon as the report came out, Shen Peizhen was immediately criticized by countless media. The resulting series of events has transformed Shen Peizhen from a feminist fighter admired by everyone into a street rat. In the end, Shen Peizhen was also arrested and imprisoned, and her name gradually disappeared into the long river of history.
The third reason is to slap Song Jiaoren. In August 1912, at the invitation of Sun Yat-sen, Shen Peizhen attended the meeting of the League. At the meeting, Kuomintang party leader Song Jiaoren read out the new Kuomintang party constitution, because the party constitution did not put forward "equal rights for men and women," and angry Shen Peizhen rushed to the rostrum and beat Song Jiaoren in public, slapping the other side several times.
The above 3 events made Shen Peizhen completely discredited and became a well-deserved "first female hooligan of the Republic of China".

The second female gangster of the Republic of China - "Godfather Lin Guisheng"
Speaking of several figures on the beach during the Republic of China period, whether it was Jin Jinrong or Du Yuesheng, they were all well-known at that time. But many people do not know that behind these bosses stands a woman, she is known as "the Godfather of the Republic of China's gangster Lin Guisheng".
Lin Guisheng, who was born in Suzhou, has a good face and the graceful beauty of a Suzhou-Hangzhou woman. But her personality and temper are like "good men of Liangshan".
As early as Lin Guisheng's twenties, he opened a green building in Shanghai. Because of his flexible mind and ability to do business, Lin Guisheng quickly established a strong network of contacts with the Qinglou as a platform, and also mixed some fame in Shanghai Beach.
She then met Jin Rong, who was just a small policeman in the concession. Although the identity gap between the two is huge, they still both fall in love. Don't look at Lin Guisheng in both black and white, but she is true love for Jin Jinrong, is it a bit incredible?

A woman who opened a green building at the age of 20 will have true love? Don't worry, we'll talk about why.
Subsequently, Lin Guisheng and Jin Jinrong married in Suzhou, and at the behest of Lin Guisheng, Jin Jinrong began to recruit disciples. With the support of Lin Guisheng, Jin Rong was also in the official arena and soon became the inspector of the French Concession.
With the help of this layer of identity, the development of his forces is also very rapid, and the number of people quickly exceeds a thousand. And Jin Rong has also become a well-known figure in Shanghai Beach, but those who know him well know that the real decision in the gang is always the beautiful-looking woman.
Under the leadership of Lin Guisheng, the gang did a lot of things that were angry and resentful: green buildings, casinos, smuggling, collecting protection fees, etc., anyway, what to make money to do. Soon, Lin Guisheng accumulated a lot of wealth. However, with the occurrence of an incident, it directly caused this "female godfather of the Republic of China gangsters" to fall off the altar.
The gang's affairs are all Lin Guisheng is busy, "throwing hands" Jin Rong has nothing to do, he began to mess around with flowers and grass, and then he fell in love with the famous corner of the beach at that time - Lu Chunlan.

In fact, it is understandable that Jin Rong is looking for a good match outside, but Jin Jin Rong actually wants to marry this actor in the media, and Jin Jin Rong and Lin Guisheng have completely turned their faces because of this matter.
Seeing the change of Jin Rong, Lin Guisheng was discouraged, she did not force anything, took a part of the money to live a secluded life, and later died of illness in an old house in Shanghai.
Although Lin Guisheng has not been "active" for a long time, she has single-handedly created the "first gang of the Republic of China". As the female godfather of the Republic of China, she was elected as the "second female hooligan of the Republic of China".
The third female rogue of the Republic of China - She Aizhen
She Aizhen was born into a family of merchants and came to a wealthy family. When she was young, she was a well-known beauty who was deeply liked by her parents, so her father sent her to Shanghai Qixiu Girls' High School to study.
The students in this school are all women, which makes She Aizhen feel a little lonely, because no one appreciates her beauty. Soon, some in society discovered She Aizhen and constantly pursued her, which made She Aizhen enjoy it. She soon fell, hanging out with a bunch of all day.

Once, a gangster surnamed Wu deliberately drunk She Aizhen and helped her into a hotel. Since then, She Aizhen has completely degenerated and become a well-known female hooligan in Shanghai Beach. Later, she joined the gang and worshiped Ji Yunqing as her adoptive father.
If you simply join the gang, this is understandable, but She Aizhen has embarked on a road of no return. She actually married Wu Sibao, the leader of the Shanghai rogue leader, Wang Fei No. 76 Guard Brigade. Since then, this beautiful-looking, beautiful woman, because of her surname She (she), so people have been nicknamed "Beautiful Snake".
In 1942, Wu Sibao, the great lackey of the Wang puppet regime, was poisoned to death, and She Aizhen was completely liberated. Then she did something, something that shook everyone's jaws.
During the Republic of China period, there was a very famous female writer, she was Zhang Ailing, and When she was young, Zhang Ailing fell in love with a man named Hu Lancheng. Zhang Ailing gave everything she had for this man.
When Wu Sibao was poisoned, She Aizhen then moved in with Hu Lancheng. Zhang Ailing exhausted all the men who had not been able to complete their lives with them, and they were easily dealt with by this female hooligan.

What is even more hateful is that after the surrender of Japan in 1945, She Aizhen was arrested and imprisoned, and was released on bail in 1949. He then moved to Hong Kong for Japan and later married Hu Lancheng. After that, the two settled in Japan and lived their own small lives, which was really uncomfortable, but helpless.
The Republic of China was a special period in which people changed their feudal thinking, and various influential figures emerged one after another. Some are still revered and remembered, while others have disappeared into time.
